FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Aviation Community Will Fly In to Help Out
Residents of the Bahamas are Recipients of Aviation’s Goodwill
October 18, 2007 (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) – Today Premier Aircraft Sales launched
support for a community outreach program that extends beyond domestic
shores. The Ft. Lauderdale headquartered aviation company is seeking to
leverage
the time, talent, and energy of the aviation community to support the
residents of the Bahamas as part of a special event called Bahamas Habitat
Fly-In and
Help-Out.
“Living in paradise is not without its drawbacks,” states John Armstrong,
Chairman of the Bahamas Habitat Aviation Committee. “Atlantic storms ravage the
fragile communities of the Bahamas causing seemingly endless damage within
these small communities. There is never a shortage of reconstruction
projects. Our mission is two fold: First to coordinate a workforce and make it
convenient, safe and fun to fly to the Bahamas to lend a hand. Secondly,
through
the efforts of the Bahamas Habitat ministry, the trip will provide an
opportunity for the aviation community to give something back to families who
are in
desperate need of our help and support. If you can swing a hammer or carry
some 2x4s, you’re qualified,” Armstrong concluded.
The Fly-In Help Out event is scheduled for November 9th-12th, 2007.
Hurricane season will have passed and flying conditions will be ideal. Aviators
interested in volunteering their aircraft for transportation and their labor to
a
meaningful cause will fly to the island of Eleuthera where they will work
side-by-side with local residents to restore homes and improve living
conditions. The weekend work camp is being hosted by the Bahamas Methodist
Habitat who
will provide food, lodging and transportation.

The event is intended to expose people to the potential to make a difference
by supporting the vital ministry of the Bahamas Habitat through their gifts
and coordination of summer church and youth groups. There will be social time
among the hard work – both experiences will create memories of a lifetime.
For pilots who have never flown from the United States to the Bahamas, the
Bahamas Habitat Fly In-Help Out trip will make the first excursion an easy
learning experience for future visits to this tropical paradise.
“As a pilot, who doesn’t want a tax deductible reason to fly to the Bahamas?
” stated Earle Boyter, Vice President of Sales for Premier Aircraft Sales,
Inc. “For us, it’s about the opportunity to support a ministry that fits our
values and that we can support uniquely using our aviation talents and
resources. We are encouraging our customers to join us for this event,” added
Boyter.
The humanitarian fleet will depart Premier’s Ft. Lauderdale Executive
Airport (KFXE) headquarters after enjoying a luncheon hosted by the company on
Friday November 9th and will arrive at Governor’s Harbour (MYEM) as the port
of
entry. Since this is a non-profit Christian relief mission, the flight and
expenses are tax deductible for pilots and participants.
Aviators and their mission-minded friends are encouraged to visit
